Arnold/London Philharmonic Orchestra:<br />
Arnold Overtures TP-003<br />
“Everything about <strong>the</strong> recording is just so<br />
right. There's just this orchestra out <strong>the</strong>re in space,<br />
well not exactly in space, it's an orchestra in a<br />
complete acoustic environment “<br />
Malcolm Arnold had been <strong>the</strong> Principal trumpet in <strong>the</strong><br />
London Philharmonic Orchestra before he retired to<br />
concentrate on composing and conducting. Thus when <strong>the</strong><br />
sessions were scheduled for this recording of Arnold<br />
conducting his old band in his own compositions, excitement<br />
in <strong>the</strong> orchestra ran high. The orchestra came to play, and<br />
play <strong>the</strong>y did. Luckily for us, Keith Johnson was <strong>the</strong>re with his<br />
custom recording equipment, along with producer J.<br />
Tamblyn Henderson. The gorgeous music, <strong>the</strong> inspired<br />
playing, and <strong>the</strong> legendary acoustics of Watford Town Hall<br />
were all captured on Keith’s focused-gap analog tape<br />
recorder. Those same tapes, played on that same tape<br />
machine, were <strong>the</strong> source for our version.
